Lots of good stuff at Walgreens this week. If you scroll to the very bottom, I have included some beginner scenarios from blogger My Frugal Adventures. These are laid out and easy for you to do to get some Walgreens confidence & see how you really can get stuff for free or very cheap!!It is also a reminder about coupon order & how to hand your coupons to the cashier... I didn't do this right last week @ Walgreens & it cost me $5 in coupons I could have used!! :(

My Frugal Adventureshas a couple of deal ideas for the Beginner Series. She has broken it down for beginners and intermediate. So, if you have been following each week and feel you are ready to move from the beginners, check out the intermediate deal idea below.

Beginners:

Buy 1 John Frieda Shampoo or Conditioner $5.99Use $2/1 Walgreens coupon from the March coupon bookand Use $3/1 Shampoo or Conditioner from 3/7 SSFinal Price: .99

*You can get hair care products free at the drugstores frequently but this is a very good price if you are a fan of John Frieda.

This is an example of how the order you hand over coupons can make a big difference. I would recommend giving the coupons in this order:Use Buy One Get One Free Reach Toothbrush from 1/3 RP (will deduct full value of $3 off)Use $1 off Floss from 1/3 RPUse in ad coupon for $5.01 offFinal Price: Free (Just pay tax!)
